Day 2: Presidential Election Petition Court resumes pre-hearing with Atiku/PDP’s petition:

 

There are four grounds in this petition. First, it states that Tinubu’s election is invalid by reason of INEC’s non-compliance with the provisions of the Electoral Act, 2022.

It is also questioning Tinubu’s candidacy on the grounds of the substitution of the initial placeholder, Kabir Masari with Shettima.

The petition also alleges that the election was invalid because of corrupt practices.

Atiku/PDP’s petition also states that Mr Tinubu was not duly elected by majority of lawful votes cast at the Election.

Finally, the petition stated, Mr. Tinubu was at the time of the election not qualified to run for office of president due to an alleged indictment on drug-related charges in the US.
